Kylie Jenner came for Tristan Thompson over his paternity drama, and she did not mince words. The season two premiere of The Kardashians provided a behind-the-scenes look at how supportive the Kardashian-Jenner family really can be.
The episode detailed the Kardashian-Jenner family’s response to Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson’s pregnancy announcement amid his paternity scandal.
Kylie Jenner’s Reaction To Tristan Thompson’s Paternity Suit
The Kardashians season two premiere episode, which aired on September 22, gave a glimpse at the support Khloe Kardashian received from her family after news broke that Tristan, 31, had fathered a child with another woman.
Kylie, 25, got candid in a confessional, expressing her disappointment in Tristan.
“I’m just really disappointed in Tristan. I think it’s really f–ked up that he knew he had another baby on the way with somebody else, which makes me uncomfortable to put someone in that position, especially when there’s a child involved,” the Kylie Cosmetics founder shared.
“This was just really unforgivable in my books,” she added.
Kim, Kris, Kendall, and Kylie had a meeting to discuss the situation, with Kim declaring that they would “rally around her and just be super supportive.”
At a point during the discussion, Kylie whispered, “I just didn’t like the fact that Tristan knew that this was happening.”
Per E! News, Kendall added that it almost felt like Tristan’s intention was to “trap” Khloe. Later in the episode, while speaking with Khloe, Kris broke down into tears at her condo. Kris went on to note in a confessional, “It’s a challenge. I just feel bad for her because the joy has been sucked out of her once again.”
Inside Tristan Thompson’s Paternity Suit
In December last year, Maralee Nichols filed a paternity suit against Tristan, alleging that Tristan was the father of her newborn son Theo, now 9 months. Tristan later confirmed that he had fathered the boy and apologized to Khloe.
The Chicago Bulls’ power forward and the Good American founder were expecting their second child together at the time. They also share a daughter True, 4. It was confirmed by Khloe’s rep in August 2022 that their son was born via surrogate, although the child’s name has not been disclosed.
In the months following the lawsuit filing, Khloe’s heartache and her family’s support were captured on camera.
“It’s supposed to be a really exciting time,” Khloe said while fighting back tears. “It’s just a different experience.”
